nighttime activity #476


the cold weather has kind of put a damper on my exercising plans, so around 2:02 am i decided i'd try this out.

i was motivated and optimistic in the beginning, excited that i found a new way to introduce some physical activity into my off-the-wall schedule.

it didn't take long for the frustration to set in. i am no dancer, and choreographed motion is not my strong point. as soon as i would begin to do a move right, those peppy sculpted robots would be doing something totally different. i was always a step behind and i doubt i was reaching any kind of target heart rate. and who smiles while they are exercising? no one.

not to mention i had none of the required equipment (dumbbells, step, medicine ball) so that required some improvisation (canned food, an upside down rubbermaid tub, and nothing). luckily i didn't hurt myself.
